An application named New facebook chat v2.0 has been urging users to activate the new facebook chat with new features like video chat, font colors, animations, group chat and faster speed. But it actually a scam as it sends to many notifications and users say it really doesn't work. After few steps it asks users to click on an ad to complete the activation. After you click on activation, following screen appears:
It seems to be a scam due to following:
1) Not developed by facebook.
2) In final step, it asks users to click on an advertisement to complete the activation.
2) Users reporting that no such feature are available.
3) It sends unnecessary notifications.
It may be a phising scam trying to access andstore your profile information or trying to harm your computer. Its urging users to click on ads. So, just ignore this application. Report this application to facebook.

Yay I removed it!
How did you remove it?
Just go to your facebook application settings and you find the list of apps. Search for New Facebook chat and click on X on right of it. Confirm it and it will be removed.
I believed this New Facebook Chat was legit..but, never activated it. I want to remove it, but it is not listed on my FB Applications anymore. What do I do now?
This application no longer remain on facebook. So, no need to remove this from applications. But Beware of other such apps. If you find such apps, report it to facebook and you can share with us on this post.
